foite’s &l)k Whittier. National Lyrics. By John G. hittier. Boston: Ticknor & Fields. For sale by J. B. Lippincott & Co. The above is one of a series from the publishing house of Messrs. Ticknor & Fields, under the general title of “ Com panion Poets for' the People—lllus trated,” —a 16mo of 104 pages, conven ient for the satchel. It is made up of republications from those tributes to freedom and expressions of horror of American slavery, to which thfi gifted pen of the author Vias been, consecrated for a generation past. It is at least thirty-five years since we first read “ Our Fellow Countrymen in Chains,’ 1 , and it wakens vivid memories of the first breaking forth of the indomitable anti slavery spirit of the North, to read again this burning satire upon the then recent demonstrations of American sympathy for Greece, warring for independence of Turk ish despotism, , and Poland, in its gallant but ill-starred effort to shake off the gov ernment of the Czar, and the. rousing and prophetic warning which follows: Go —let us ask of Constantine To loose his grasp on Poland’s throat; And beg the lord, of Mahmoud’s line To spare the straggling Suliote— Will not the Bcorching .answer come From turbaned-Turk, and scornful Buss: “ Go, loose your fettered slaveß at home, Then turn, and ask the like of us I ” Just God! and shall we calmly rest, The Christian’s scorn —the heathen’s mirth— Content to live the-lingering jest And by-word of a mocking Earth ? Shall our own glorious land retain" That curse which Europe scorns to bear? Shall our own brethren drag the chain Which not even Russia’s menials wear ? Up, then, in. Freedom’s manly part, From gray-beara eld to fiery youth, And on the nation’s naked heart Scatter the living coals of Truth! Up—while we slumber, deeper yet The shadow of our fame is growing! Up—while ye pause, our sun'may set In blood, kround our altars flowing! Oh! rouse ye, ere the storm comes forth— The gatlered wrath of God and man— Like that which wasted Egypt’s earth, Whenliail and fire above it ran. Hear ye no warnings in the air? , Fee? ye nb earthquake underneath? .Up-ip—why will he slumber where Tie sleeper only wakes iu death ?

Letters to Various By Henry D. Thoreau, author of “A Week On the Concord and Merrimack Rivers,” “Walden,”, etc., etc.- Boston: Ticknor & Fields. Sold in Philadelphia, by J. B. Lippincott <&rGo- This 1 is a book of real letters —-not a cor respondence manufactured for a publisher, " but portions of the author’s correspondence -with various persons, running twenty-five years back,, and tliat we may be sure of their integrity, we are told in a prefatory note, that nearly all of them are printed from the original autographs furnished by the persons to whom they were addressed. To those who have not read Mr. Thoreau’s volumes, and who are unacquainted with the cast of his mind, if will be sufficient to say that this book is introduced to the public over the signature of “ R. W- E.”— the initials of Ralph Waldo Emerson. This . clue will not be found false. Transcendent alism—we use a term to which Mr. Thoreau confesses- —is but a sublimated pantheism. We confess to a Very indis tinct comprehension of its nature, but that which we have just stated is all that we can make of it. It seems to be a virtue with men who affect etherializatoon of thought -W keep themselves’Mt -bfihe’range of such* iokenl—one lip is still id—unbending one knee 1 iuntain, deep-rooted and iude tends to the storm; sedom, and Honor, and jolluted with blood j orth has forgotten her jr is low in the dust, — , '.rm from the shackle has forms of expression as identify a sentiment. Out of this habit, there grows at least one solid advantage, doubtful of morality though it be, that in controversy they are ever intangible—have ever this ready’ reply, “ You mistake ou( point." “ Dear H.," writes Mr. Henry D. to Miss Thoreau, “that letter to J——, for which you had an opportunity doubtless to substi tute a more perfect communication) fell as was natural, into the hands of his ‘ trans cendental brother,’ who is his proxy in such cases, having been commissioned to acknow ledge and receipt all bills that may be pre sented. But what’s in a nanre? Perhaps it does not matter whether it be John or Henry. Nor will those same six months have to be altered, I fear, to suit his case as 'Well, But methinks they have not passed entirely without intercourse, pro vided .we have been sincere though humble worshippers of the same virtue in the mean: time. Certainly it is better that we should’ make ourselves quite, sure of such a com munion as this by fjm only course which is completely free from suspicion,—the coin cidence of two earnest and aspiring lives, — than run the risk of a disappointment by relying wholly or chiefly on so meagre and uncertain a means as speech, whether writ ten, or spoken, affords. How often, when we have been nearest each other bodily, have we really been farthest off ! Our'tongues were the withy foils with which we fenced; each other off. Not that we have not met heartily and with profit as inempSs of one family, but it was a small, one surely, and not that other human family. We; have met frankly and without concealment ever, as befits those who have an instinctive trust in one another, and the scenery gf whose outward lives has been the same, but never as prompted by an earnest and affec tionate desire to probe deeper our mutiial natures. Such intercourse, at least, if it has ever been, has not condescended to the vulgarities of oral communication, for the ears are provided with no lid as the eye is, and would not have been deaf to it in sleep. And now glad am I, if lam not mistaken in imagining that some such trans cendental inquisitiveness has traveled post thither , —for, as I observed before; Where the''holt hits j thither was it aimed, —-any arbitrary direction notwithstanding.” In Mr. Thoreau’s former writings, which in their way are ; only too captivating, he appears as a devout worshipper of nature; and perfectly ravished with-the Divinity,-he adores. He exhibits a temperament on which an unusually devout .Christian chai racter might have been basedj had his mind taken the rational ascent “Up through Natureunto Nature’s God,” instead of first deifying nature, .and thence looking down to the Supreme Object of holy adoration. ' We may add that the exquisitely ethereal oast of mind is a born gift, of very rare be stowment,.and when hot constituent, is hard- Iy attained by cultivation. “Poeta nascitur, non fit,” says the aphorism. Much less could there be an artificial transcendentalism .But find one who has “ taken it the natural way,’’’ and he is pretty sure to appear in author ship, and tolerably sure to be a prize in the. hand' of a publisher, as we presume Mr. Thoreau is.: No great evil might ensue,, if such’men lived only among themselves, or if;, their writings were picked up only by staid ; or matured readers- who ■ wanted, for curiosity’s ‘sake/ to 'obtain some curious illustration of the text, “ Lord, what is man ?” But among another and large class,' there will be aspirants to their sphere, who will only come near enough- to success to know nothing Of what' they think they know, and to become worthless for any really attainable line of thought. Apart from the ruin of a plain Christian faith, their common sense will be spoiled, with out the recompense of ah||inther sense. ' But we’ are wanderiflP|mtd general re marks upon a school of - modem literature. Returning to Mr. Thoreau’s “ Letters," we give one more short specimen—all which our rOoin will'allow : - “At present I am subsisting oil pertain wild .flavors which.' nature wafts to ..ine, whiqjt unaccountably; sustain me, and make' my apparently poor life.rich. - ? “ ‘ Free in this world as the birds in the air, disengaged from every kind of chains, those P;ho have' practised the yoga gather in Brahma the certain fruit of their works/ “ Depend upon it, that, rude and careless as I am, I would fain practise the yoga faithfully. i “ f The yogi, absorbed in contemplation, contributes in his degree to creation : he breathes a divine perfume, he hears wonder ful things. Divine forms traverse him without tearing him, and, united, to the nature which is proper to him, he goes, he acts as animating original matter/ “To some extent, and at rare intervals, even I am a yogi.” We add that the book is a 12mo. of 207 pages. Of its mechanical excellence, it is praise enough to say that it sustains the general character of the establishment from Which it is issued. The Young Apprentice. By the author of ‘ 1 Fern’s Hollow. ” Fbanky’s Work. By Caroline E. Kelly, author, of “ Papa’s Little Soldiers,. 1 ’ “ Johnny’s Captain,” etc., etc. These are recent juvenile publications, laid on our table from the bookstore of the Presbyterian Publication Committee, 1334 Chestnut street-—the first confain ing 300 pages, and the last 145. They are issues of Henry Hoyt, Boston, whose success in providing volumes for Sabbath school libraries, and religious reading for children and youth which, besides the negative virtue of being safe, are really attractive and healthy, has hardly been excelled in this country. These little volumes will not disappoint purchasers seeking some gopdfbooks which the chil dren tetZkread,, - THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY. AUGUST :i. 1865 Literature on the Pacific Coast —ln a recent number of the Weekly Bulletin, of oan Eraneisco, there is an interesting account ot the growth of the book interest in Califor ma. % Look, says the Bulletin, at the wonderful history of this State Less than eighteen years ago—a period within the memory of many a youth now attending the public schools of this city—there were not probably 300 volumes of English books within, the ter ritory now comprising the State of California. To-day the bound books printed in the Eng lish language and scattered through the limits of the State cannot number less thah 2,000,- 000 volumes. Almost every city, town, and village in the State has its public and “ cir culating” library, and the private dwellings of* our inhabitants are on the average as well supplied with books as in tfih older -States of the Union. Among the largest libraries out side of San Francisco are the State Library at Sacramento, with 22,000 volumes:' the Sacramento City Library, with 10,000 vol umes ; the Marysville City Library, with 5,000 volumes; the Stockton City'Library, .5,000; beside the college libraries'- at San Jose and Oakland, and a large number of “circulating libraries” in the smaller towns and villages. In San Francisco we have the Mercantile Library, with 20,000 volumes; the Odd Fellows’ Library, with 12,000 volumes ; the Mechanic’s Library, with i. 00 0; the library of the Young Men’s Christian Union, with 4,000 volumes, and smaller libra ries belonging to the Masonic fraternity and the Pioneer’s Association. The well-selected library belonging to the What Cheer House, and numbering 5,000 volumes, also deserves mention, since it is probably as extensively read and exerts as great an influence over a large portion of the population of the State as any library of its size'm California. 'ln addition thereto are the Sunday-school libra lies, numbering,many, thousand volumes,; and the numerous private libraries of our citizens, Attached to the Mercantile, Odd Fellows’, Mechanic’s, and Pioneef’slibfaries, are read ing-rooms, in which all the leading periodicals, magazines, _ reviews, and, illustrated papers, both of this country and Europe, are taken, besides the prominent newspapers of the two hemispheres. Thus it will be seen that the ‘ opportunities for literary culture and mental improvement afforded, in this .city are: but little inferior to those of the older cities of the Union, arid fat.exceed anything to be found in any other city of its ageintheworld. Except in the departments of antiquarian books, works pf,ref|rence, philological,, scien tific, and philosophical pubhcatiphs, requisite for the historian, the man of science, or the bookworm; San Francisco is already as well supplied, withs literature as most of the, older cqmmunijties of the country. If all this has been, accomplished during the' lifetime of pur school children, what will they not witness before they-have reached the hllottedage of ahan?! : Who shall-estimate the influences to be hereafter; exerted.,by Anglo-Saxon litera ture upon the destines 'of the people .inKa|)itr ing the Pacific coast 6f‘North'America? - ' EUBOPE. 7' - Londonpapers say that the Imperial “ Life of Julius Caesar” is a “dfugintnelmarket;” dean and select copies of Vol. I. being offered for sale.at 4s. 6d., and not being found .very disposable.even,at,that price.
